Bristol Palin: mother to a young child, former Dancing with the Stars contestant, and ferocious street fighter.

We reported earlier that the Palins were involved in a beer-fueled fistfight at a snowmobile-sponsored party in Anchorage. At least three Palins engaged in fisticuffs that night, but if police documents are to be believed, Bristol emerges as the clear champion of them all.

According to the 23-year-old’s statements to police, she was attending a birthday party when her sister Willow told her that she had been pushed by an older woman. After Bristol confronted the mystery woman, party host Korey Klingenmeyer pushed Bristol to the ground and called her a “slut” and “c–t.”

Bad call, Korey, bad call.

Bristol reportedly punched Korey multiple times in the face, and didn’t stop until he intercepted her fist of fury and knocked her onto the ground again.

After noticing Bristol was swinging fists, brother Track and father Toddgot involved. Todd was allegedly jumped by four people and suffered from a bloody nose. Track was escorted out of the party with a torn shirt and bleeding mouth.

And how was Bristol?

“Uninjured, though one cop described her as having ‘dirt on her knees,’” reports E! News.

Lesson learned: don’t mess with the Palin family – but if you must, pick anyone other than Bristol.

Imagine the scene: Track Palin arrives at the residence of Chris Olds, where the party (sponsored by a snowmobile race) is taking place. In dramatic fashion, the eldest Palin sibling “stumbles” out of a stretch Hummer – the official prom vehicle choice of suburbanites everywhere circa 2008.

At the party, Track spots one of Willow Palin’s ex-boyfriends and exchanges words – not the good kind, mind you, as Track is reportedly unhappy with the boy. But according to a political blogger’s account of the night, things quickly went from maverick to straight-up rogue:

“The owner of the house gets involved, and he probably wished he hadn’t. At this point, he’s up against nearly the whole Palin tribe: Palin women screaming. Palin men thumping their chests. Word is that Bristol has a particularly strong right hook, which she employed repeatedly, and it’s something to hear when Sarah screams, ‘Don’t you know who I am!’ And it was particularly wonderful when someone in the crowd screamed back, ‘This isn’t some damned Hillbilly reality show!’”

The Palins were allegedly asked to leave, but even then the family proved that they #cantbetamed:

“As people were leaving in a cab, Track was seen on the street, shirtless, flipping people off, with Sarah right behind him, and Todd somewhere in the foreground, tending to his bloody nose.”

No one really pays Sarah Palin any mind these days, but British reporter Martin Bashir felt compelled to take the former Alaskan governor to task after her recent speech comparing America’s national debt to slavery.

There’s a reason Sarah Palinlooks so thin these days: According to the politico-turned-TV-personality, she’s just doing research.

Days after the former governor of Alaska was photographed at a Studio City, Calif., Kmart looking a few sizes smaller, Palin has announced plans to pen a new diet and fitness book.

“Our family is writing a book on fitness and self-discipline focusing on where we get our energy and balance as we still eat our beloved homemade comfort foods!” the 48-year-old wrote in an e-mail to People.

“We promise you what we do works and allows a fulfilling quality of life and sustenance anyone can enjoy,” Palin added.

Over the weekend, the mother of five was spotted out and about in Flashdance-inspired attire, looking dramatically thin and bony.

Palin’s new look has caused quite the commotion online, with several websites and blogs speculating over her appearance, but according to daughter Bristol, the 2008 vice presidential nominee is doing just fine.

The Sarah Palin’s Alaska reality star offered no details on the title or release date of her diet and fitness book, but given her track record, the book could be an instant bestseller.

Palin’s 2009 memoir, Going Rogue, was Number One on the New York Times bestseller list in its first week of release, and went on to sell more than two million copies. Her second book, America by Heart, a compilation of Palin’s favorite literature, speeches and sermons, peaked in 2010 at Number Two on the same NYT list.

Newly-minted Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan has been vocal about his love for the music of Rage Against the Machine. Alas, the affair is strictly one-sided. In an op-ed essay published Thursday at RollingStone.com, Rage guitarist Tom Morello made clear that the band, known for its left-leaning lyrics, has little love for the right-wing Ryan or his running mate, Mitt Romney.

Morello wrote that he’s amused by Ryan’s fandom, since “he is the embodiment of the machine that our music has been raging against for two decades.” Wondering which Rage tune might be Ryan’s favorite, Morello wrote, “Is it the one where we condemn the genocide of Native Americans? The one lambasting American imperialism? Our cover of ‘Fuck the Police’? Or is it the one where we call on the people to seize the means of production?” As for any rage in Ryan, Morello wrote that he sees only “A rage against women, a rage against immigrants, a rage against workers, a rage against gays, a rage against the poor, a rage against the environment…. This unbridled rage against those who have the least is a cornerstone of the Romney-Ryan ticket.”

As Morello noted, the Rage-Ryan dispute is only the latest in a long line of politicians trying to co-opt a pop act’s cool factor, only to find that the musician or band wants no association with them. In fact, it’s not even the first such dispute this week; on Monday, the Romney campaign ran afoul of the Silversun Pickups for unauthorized use of the band’s song “Panic Switch.”

Which bands and singers have dissed the politicians who love their music?

As in the Silversun Pickups incident, a politician’s unrequited love for a musician’s work manifests itself in a song played at a campaign rally, followed by a cease-and-desist letter from the musician, outraged that a tune played without permission might be heard as an endorsement — or a missed chance to earn royalties.

Ronald Regan and Bruce Springsteen
The trend started in 1984, when President Ronald Reagan, running for re-electon, glommed onto Bruce Springsteen’s anthem “Born in the USA,” a chart-topping hit that year. Springsteen was miffed, suggesting that the Reagan campaign had picked the song for its (ironic) title and rousing music, without listening to the lyrics, about a bitter, desperate, jobless Vietnam veteran. (Not exactly the “Morning in America” message the campaign was trying to convey.) Rival Democratic candidate Walter Mondale seized on the controversy, saying that Bruce may have been born in the U.S.A., “but he wasn’t born yesterday” — marking the only time in Mondale’s public life that anyone remembers him telling a joke.

Bob Dole and Sam & Dave
In 1996, R&B legend Sam Moore objected to Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole’s use of the Sam & Dave classic “Soul Man” at campaign stops, where it had been rewritten as “Dole Man.” The Dole campaign pulled the tune after a threat of legal action. Moore was an equal opportunity objector; in 2008, he successfully urged Democrat Barack Obama’scampaign to stop using Sam & Dave’s “Hold On! I’m Coming.”

George W. Bush and Tom Petty
In 2000, Tom Petty threatened to sue the George W. Bush campaign for using “I Won’t Back Down.” The GOP campaigners backed down. Petty performed the song in Al Gore’s honor the night he backed down and conceded the election to Bush. Petty also threatened litigation in 2011 when Republican presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann used his iconic tune “American Girl.”

Orleans and John McCain
John Hall, of ’70s band Orleans, complained when Bush used the band’s familiar “Still the One” at campaign events in 2004. By 2008, Hall had been elected as a Democratic Congressman from New York when Republican presidential candidate John McCain started using the song. Hall got him to yank it.

John McCain and Van Halen, John Mellencamp, Foo Fighters and Jackson Browne
In fact, McCain was a serial offender when it came to using songs without permission. Among those who objected were Van Halen (over the song “Right Now”) John Mellencamp (the songs “Our Country” and “Little Pink Houses,” which he’d licensed to Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards), Foo Fighters (“My Hero,” another song whose bitter lyrics the candidate apparently overlooked) and Jackson Browne (who sued for $75,000 over the use of “Running on Empty” and eventually won a settlement).

Sarah Palin and Heart
McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, made use of Heart’s classic-rock track “Barracuda,” since that was her high school nickname. The core of Heart, sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson, complained, but Palin kept using the song. “I feel completely fucked over,” said guitarist Nancy. Singer Ann issued a statement saying, “Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women.”

Mike Huckabee and Boston
Also in 2008, Boston guitarist/songwriter Tom Scholz complained about Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee’s use of “More Than a Feeling,” a song that the bass-playing Arkansas governor would perform with his band, the Capitol Offenders. Barry Goudreau, the Boston guitarist who’d left the band in the 1980s amid a bitter legal battle with Scholz, would sometimes sit in with the Offenders.

Other spats: Aerosmith slapped down Virginia GOP Congressman Eric Cantor for his use of “Back in the Saddle” as an anthem for Tea Party Republicans in 2009. In 2010, Don Henley got California Republican Senate candidate Chuck DeVore to stop using parody versions of his “The Boys of Summer” and “All She Wants To Do Is Dance.” That same year, Henley’s Eagles bandmate,Joe Walsh, got the Illinois Republican Congressman who shares his name to stop sharing his song “Walk Away.” Also in 2010, power trio Rush got Senator Rand Paul to stop using its songs “Tom Sawyer” and “The Spirit of Radio.” Like the Canadian band, the Kentucky Republican is a big fan of novelist Ayn Rand and her Objectivist philosophy, but Rush’s lawyer said that the group’s objection was entirely about copyright infringement, not ideology.

The best 2010 songwriter smackdown came from Talking Heads’David Byrne, who sued Florida Republican Senate candidate Charlie Crist over his unauthorized use of “Road to Nowhere.” Byrne won a settlement that included cash and a forced apology by Crist. On YouTube.

Watch Charlie Crist’s apology to Talking Heads here.

With this year’s presidential race heating up, so have the legal threats from aggrieved musicians. ’80s band Survivor took action against Republican candidate Newt Gingirch, complaining that he’d been using “Eye of the Tiger” without permission for at least three years. Cyndi Lauper complained about a Democratic National Committee ad with a negative message about Romney. She added that she was no supporter of Romney; she merely didn’t want her comforting song “True Colors” associated with such negativity. (The DNC yanked the ad.) And hip-hopper K’Naan called upon Romney to stop using his “Wavin’ Flag,” though he also offered the song to Obama, should the President want it.

The funniest or most pathetic (take your pick) case of unrequited love between a musician and a politician is the one revealed this summer, involving Bruce Springsteen and the governor of his home state, Chris Christie. The New Jersey leader has attended more than 120 Springsteen concerts and shouts along to all the lyrics, but despite all his attempts to set up an introduction, the Boss has declined to meet him. Perhaps the famously liberal songwriter wants to avoid another “Born in the USA” incident with a conservative politician, but Christie has insisted that they could find common ground. “We disagree on a lot less than he thinks,” the snubbed Republican said in a must-read article in The Atlantic about his one-sided man-crush. Sadly, a sitdown between the Boss and the Governor seems about as likely as one between Paul Ryan and Tom Morello. But oh, to be a fly on the wall if such a meeting ever did come to pass…

Did the campaign trail prepare Alaska’s “First Dude” Todd Palin for life in front of the cameras on his new NBC reality show, Stars Earn Stripes?

“Growing up in Alaska, I’ve been a commercial fisherman all my life,” said Palin about the physical rigors that prepared him for live ammo training with real-life commandos on the show. “My career was on the north slope in the oil fields, that’s a dangerous job.”

What other death-defying entries did Palin add to his resume?

The politician’s husband got some experience as a snow mobile racer and piloting a private plane, among other new skills.

“Jumping out of a helicopter, that’s really putting it on the edge,” he said about some of the tests he undergoes on the show. “It tested me mentally and physically. But in the back of my mind I was thinking of all the veterans, military, first responders that are saving lives and defending our freedoms every day.”

Palin’s family and the military go way back. His father moved to Alaska as a service member and his son, Track, just graduated from boot camp at Ft. Benning, Ga.

“Going and watching his graduation just opened my eyes up,” said Palin. “Our son is serving in Afghanistan and that’s the biggest reason why I participated and competed and challenged myself in this show. I wouldn’t be here without the military.”

He wouldn’t be here without wife, Sarah Palin, who ran unsuccessfully for vice-president in 2008, later starring in a reality show of her own, TLC’s Sarah Palin’s Alaska, which was followed by daughter Bristol’s reality turn in Lifetime’s Life’s a Trip.

The Palins have long claimed to be victims of the “lame-stream” media, but with all of their work in reality, you have to wonder just how unfair the media has been to them.

“No matter what the media says about the show, I’ve got new friends,” said Palin about his experience working with Terry Crews, skier Picabo Street, and General Wesley Clark on Stars Earn Stripes. “I’ve got a lot more respect for the military. Until you’re in their shoes, side by side with them, you have no idea.”

Do you think Todd got the last laugh on the media? Sound off in the comments section below.

With less than a week before conservative politician Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol — and her son Tripp, 3 — hit our television screens, new photos of the pair have been released. Check out these 6 images in the gallery.

What can we expect from the Lifetime show?

Bristol and Tripp move to Los Angeles. However, it is not all smooth sailing for the 21-year-old ex-Dancing with the Stars contestant, who first hit the national consciousness during her mother’s 2008 campaign for U.S. vice president when it was revealed she was an unmarried pregnant teen.

On the same day Lifetime released the sneak peek photographs, Bristol was named as a defendant in a lawsuit stemming from one on camera moment.

As one of the images shows, Bristol is snapped riding a mechanical bull at the Sunset Strip bar the Saddle Ranch — an incident which lead to a man heckling her.

Talent manager Stephen Hanks is now suing the single mom for defamation, along with the network Lifetime, claiming he had not given the program permission to film him when the incident happened back in 2011.

“Bristol Palin first accused Plaintiff of ‘being a homosexual’ in a degrading manner in front of others … she then in a magazine article blamed Plaintiff for her decision to leave Los Angeles for Alaska even though she had purchased her home in Alaska … more than two months before the encounter,” the lawsuit read.

However, during the exchange Hank is also caught on camera making offensive comments to the younger Palin about her mother, calling the Republican candidate “a wh**e” and “evil”.

So was Palin just defending herself and her mom or did she over step the line? Tell us below.

Tomorrow, Katie Couric will face off against former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin for the second time, when Palin guest hosts TODAY along side Matt Lauer, Ann Curry and the NBC gang.

As first reported last week, Katie is currently guest hosting Good Morning America this week while anchor Robin Roberts is on vacation. The show is on ABC, which will host Katie’s syndicated talk show in the fall.

The reasons behind Palin’s visit to TODAY remain unclear, but the situation is nonetheless eye-opening for two reasons: 1.) Palin will be on Couric’s old turf (Couric co-anchored TODAY for decades before leaving to host the CBS Evening News, in 2006); and 2.) the event will only rehash Couric’s now-infamous interview series with Palin from 2008, in which Palin struggled to answer many of Couric’s seemingly simple questions.

Is this whole thing too much of a coincidence, and more importantly, which show will you watch tomorrow morning: Good Morning America or TODAY? Vote now in our poll, then post your reasons in the comments!

You thought Tina Fey looked like politician Sarah Palin, wait until you seeJulianne Moore portraying the former vice presidential candidate in the new HBO movie Game Change.

Julianne portrays the once Alaska governor during her campaign alongside Senator John McCain. As we all know, they lost to President Barack Obama and VP Joe Biden. Also in the film are Ed Harris as McCain, Woody Harrelson as Steve Schmidt and Justin Gaston (aka Miley Cyrus’ ex) as Levi Johnston. The movie is based on the book of the same name.

Two years ago, Tina Fey‘s Sarah Palin impersonation took the world by storm (it also even won her an Emmy). Lucky for fans, she decided to briefly bring it back while on The Late Show last night.

While promoting Megamind, the topic of the elections came up which ultimately led to a discussion of Palin. Tina admitted that she was trying to remember how to do the impression, since it’s been so long since she’s done it.

We have to admit, Fey’s impression is a tad rusty, but hilarious nonetheless.

In between softly-lit nuzzle sessions, Brittani is seen battling her mom over her relationship with Levi, breaking down in tears when her mom has him arrested for charges unknown. Though Levi’s ex Bristol Palin’s mom Sarah Palin never had him detained by police, Levi likely drew on some of his drama with the family. As E! puts it, the video’s all-too-familiar plot may have busted up Levi and Bristol’s second engagement.

Bristol Palin took a break from waltzing around the Dancing with the Stars rehearsal studio to grab a little McDonald’s in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Before you balk, know that the budding ballroom star only had a salad!

Proud mom Sarah Palin served as a guest commentator on last night’s Dancing with the Stars, cheering on daughterBristol Palin’s fancy quickstep and welcoming Bristol’s pro partner Mark Ballas into the family’s Alaska home in a pre-taped segment.

Palin sat front-row with daughter Piper, saying she was “so proud” of her eldest daughter, nicknamed ‘Bristol the Pistol.’ Later, Pistol’s quickstep earned favorable reviews from the judges, who said her “vulnerability” reminded them of past favorite Kelly Osbourne!

Check out Sarah and Bristol in action below c/o AOL TV Squad:

Are you rooting for Bristol Palin on “DWTS?” Let us know in the comments.

I decided to do the show to get out of Alaska for a few weeks, do something fun and positive and have a good time. My mom’s excited for me. She knows this is real family entertainment.

Bristol will be competing againstThe Situation and Audrina Patridge (amongst others) on the upcoming season of DWTS.

Bristol isn’t the first politically-connected DWTS contestant to compete on the show: Former politician Tom DeLay and conservative pundit Tucker Carlson have both danced on the show. Watch Tom dance a bipartisan samba below.

Maybe Bristol will break out in a politically-themed dance on the show!

She was most recently in the news for getting re-engaged to baby daddy Levi Johnston earlier this summer. The two called off the engagement several weeks later. Levi is currently filming his own reality show which will follow him as he attempts to run for Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska.

Will you root for Bristol on DWTS? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Levi Johnston has been through many an up and down in his dealings with the Republican National Party, Playgirl Magazine (no relation) and the Palin family, but what does he regret? The CBS Early Show interviewed the young lad this morning, who told them:

I don’t really regret anything, but the only thing I wish I wouldn’t have done is to put out that apology [to Sarah Palin and the Palin family] cause it kind of makes me sound like a liar, and I’ve never lied about anything. So that’s probably the only thing. The rest of the stuff I can live with.

So why did he choose to rescind his comments that depict Sarah Palin and her parenting skills as tyrannical?

That was something I did to make my fiancée happy.

Levi’s latest venture is a work-in-progress reality show entitled Loving Levi: The Road to the Mayor’s Office that will coincide with Levi’s campaign to become the next mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, a quest that will no doubt put him in the line of fire once again since the position was once held by Sarah Palin herself.

When asked if he would make a better mayor than Sarah, Levi replied:

Let’s hope so. I can’t guarantee or promise you anything, but I’m going to try. That’s the goal. If we do win, I’m going to have to give up Hollywood for three years.

Should Levi Johnston be sorry for badmouthing his baby’s grandmama? Tell us in the comments section.

Levi Johnston has filed his official letter of intent to run for state or municipal office in the 2011 Alaskan elections, presumably to make good on his aspirations of becoming the mayor of Wasilla, Alaska – a job once held by Sarah Palin – and to film his campaign for a new reality show dubbed Loving Levi: The Road to the Mayor’s Office.

The letter indicates Johnston plans to run in Wasilla but does not specify which position.

Following the collapse of his reconciliation with Bristol Palin, Johnston, a high school drop-out, faced criticism from the Palin clan at his decision to run for his would-have-been mother-in-law’s old job.

“I never knew he had political aspirations,” Bristol told Us Weekly. “I’m glad that Levi has not given up on completing his education and is looking for steady employment.”

Palin family mockery aside, there is some good news for Levi. Because his mayoral bid has officially started, he can legally accept campaign donations.

Palin’s baby daddy and two-time ex-fiancé, Levi Johnston, recently announced that he will be running for Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska (a position once held by the elder Palin), which will be chronicled in his upcoming reality seres, Loving Levi: The Road to the Mayor’s Office. Apparently stirred by hard feelings over their recent break-up (or perhaps out of familial loyalty), Bristol lashed out at Johnston over his mayoral bid via Us Weekly, taking a dig at his status as a high-school dropout while she was at it:

“I never knew he had political aspirations. I’m glad that Levi has not given up on completing his education and is looking for steady employment.”

You may recognize Brittani Senser as Levi Johnston’s Teen Choice Awards date – and the aspiring singer Celebuzz recently gave you the scoop on (see: Who Is Britney Senser?) – but followers of all things Levi will soon know Brittani as the Alaskan stud’s co-star in what is already a headline-making new music video.

The 24-year-old singer has announced via her Facebook page that she and Levi wrapped shooting on the video for the single, After Love. In a Facebook status update, Brittani said she was “tired, exhausted and so excited for everyone to see the video:”

I really enjoyed working with Levi and his crew. They’ve been so kind and supportive this weekend. Im so grateful for the experience. Ill be back soon L.A. :)

The world now awaits the premiere of the video that Bristol Palin said mocks her family, but Brittani told RadarOnline.com that “even if Levi wasn’t in the video it probably would still be the same storyline.”

Click here for more photos of Brittani Senser. Are you looking forward to Levi and Brittani’s music video? Weigh in via the comments.

It’s nothing short of a Levi Johnston double whammy: Not only is Bristol Palin’s famous ex starring in a reality show, but the cameras will roll as he runs for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska.

The show – which has yet to be picked up by a network – will be called Loving Levi: The Road to the Mayor’s Office, executive producer, Canaan Rubin, tells Us Weekly.

The docu-soap will follow the ever controversial, headline making, matinee idol, handsome father of one as he embarks on a run for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska… [the] series will chronicle a ‘no-holds-barred’ period in Levi’s tumultuous life; co-raising his son Tripp, looking for love, and taking care of business for his fellow Wasillians.

Before 20-year-old Levi can run, he has to get his high school diploma. Earning the endorsement of Wasilla’s former mayor – and his former almost mother-in-law Sarah Palin – will likely be a bigger hurdle.

The on-again, off-again fiance to Sarah Palin‘s daughter Bristol Palin has reportedly signed a deal to star in his own reality show, sans Palin star power.

The Wasilla native, who most recently is starring as a male video honey for Brittani Senser‘s new music video, will reportedly begin shooting for his new reality show in Los Angeles on Monday and the camera crew will follow him as he makes his migration back to Alaska.

TMZ reports that “several networks” are interested in the Alaskan hunk’s reality show.

Levi was most recently in the news for getting re-engaged to Bristol. The pair broke off their engagement days later after a rumor popped up that Levi had impregnated a former girlfriend (both Levi and his ex-girlfriend deny the claim).

Levi and Bristol have one child together.

Would you watch Levi’s show? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

She’s apprehensive and concerned about this. She doesn’t want to see me get hurt again. She knew Levi and I had been talking, but she wanted to know if Levi was really sincere about this. I told her we were working on our relationship for Tripp, and she told me, ‘Actions speak louder than words.’ She’s going to wait to see if he changes, but she’s just glad he is getting on the right path. She knows how much Tripp means to me, and she wants Tripp to have a father figure.

Sarah’s public disgust with Levi began in December 2008 following the presidential election, when he broke off the engagement to Bristol two weeks after she bore their child. It continued last fall when Levi enraged Sarah by alleging she called her infant son with Down syndrome “retarded,” to which she retorted that anyone willing to pose for Playgirl would “say and do anything for even more attention.”

The day the news broke about Bristol and Levi’s re-engagement, Sarah issued a supportive, vague statement:

Bristol believes in redemption and forgiveness to a degree most of us struggle to put in practice in our daily lives.

Sarah’s daughter Bristol Palin has announced that she is engaged once again to baby daddy (and sometime-Palin family mocker) Levi Johnston. Yes, really.

The couple announced that they were dating again earlier this month but no one expected that the two would be getting engaged so quickly. The pair were previously engaged in 2008 but called off the wedding just two weeks after their son Tripp was born in December 2008.

After they broke their first engagement Levi then went on to pursue a career in Hollywood and appear in Playgirl magazine. He made headlines for dissing Bristol’s mom Sarah in public but he has since apologized for his previous behavior.

Bristol, 19, tells Us Weekly that the pair got engaged two weeks ago because “it felt right” even though they have yet to tell Mama Grizzly about their wedding plans yet:

It is intimidating and scary just to think about what her reaction is going to be. Hopefully she will jump on board.

Well, she might not be happy about having to find out about the engagement on the cover of Us Weekly.

Levi, 20, says that the two reconnected while working out custody plans for their 18-month-old son. Hopefully this engagement will stick.

Bristol at 19 is now a young adult. We obviously want what’s best for our children. Bristol believes in redemption and forgiveness to a degree most of us struggle to put in practice in our daily lives.

UPDATE (9:10 a.m.): TMZ is reporting that Bristol and Levi aren’t sleeping together since Bristol took an abstinence pledge to remain chaste until she is married. Bristol also says she wants Levi to get married while wearing a cameo vest. Sounds classy!

Finally, the nightmarish rift between Levi Johnston and the family of his baby mama, Bristol Palin, may be over!

A mountain of unpleasant sentiments have been publicly expressed between Johnston and the family of former Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin since Johnston split with Sarah’s daughter shortly after the birth of their son Tripp in late 2008. Johnston, who at one point was shopping a tell-all book on the former First Family of Alaska, accused Sarah and husband Todd of ogre-like parenting. Sarah, meanwhile, had some not-so-kind words about Johnston’s decision to pose in Playgirl.

But Johnston has extended an olive branch via—what else?—the media, offering a public apology through People magazine:

“Last year, after Bristol and I broke up, I was unhappy and a little angry. Unfortunately, against my better judgment, I publicly said things about the Palins that were not completely true…I have already privately apologized to Todd and Sarah. Since my statements were public, I owe it to the Palins to publicly apologize.”

Wow; if this divide can be bridged, perhaps there’s hope for eventual peace in the Middle East after all. And who knows; maybe Johnston’s mea culpa means that he and Bristol really haverekindled their romance.

The daughter of former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin flexes her dramatic muscles in the July 5th episode of The Secret Life of the American Teenager, but you don’t have to wait until then to bask in the awesomeness of her skills.

Check out Bristol’s acting debut in the video below. Are you paying attention, Emmys Committee?

By the time Congress finished grilling BP CEO Tony Hayward yesterday about the catastrophic environmental damage his company is causing in the Gulf of Mexico, we were all left with the feeling that, “If THAT guy can run an oil company, anybody can!”

Luckily, there are plenty of adequate replacements ready to fill his shoes out there in Show-Biz Land.

If you were hoping that Sarah Palin had gotten a boob job recently we have some bad news for you: you are kind of a creep. Oh, and, Sarah never got a boob job.

A Palin pal tells Us Weekly that reports that the former Republican nominee for Vice President are “absolutely ridiculous.”

The rumor first got started earlier this week when political humor blog Wonkette speculated that Sarah had bought some, uh, “luxury items” with her newfound millions after she was photographed looking a little more busty than usual. The story spread like wildfire but in the end, it just wasn’t real.

Us Weekly reports that they tried numerous times to get in contact with the 46-year-old former governor but her camp refused to comment.

Sarah Palinis hosting a new special on Fox News tomorrow night which follows Palin as she profiles “ordinary Americans living extraordinary lives,” including LL Cool J. Unfortunately, the show has been revealed to be a big ol’ fake.

Fox News has been airing a commercial (see below) promoting the special titled American Stories which leads the audience to believe that Palin sits down with “real Americans” and celebrities to talk about their American stories. Folksy! Relatable!

Some conservatives were shocked and pleased to see Palin talking to LL, a real live black person. Unfortunately, Palin never talked to LL, as LL revealed on Twitter:

Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palins [sic] show. WOW

“WOW,” indeed. Palin’s political career has been marked by scandal, who would have thought that her journey into television celebrity would begin more scandals. Granted, she probably wasn’t the one making the publicity decisions for the program (and LL never implies that she is to blame) but Fox News is really digging her a new hole to wallow in.

Fox News has since announced that they are cutting LL Cool J’s interview from their program for implying that Saint Sarah’s program wasn’t 100% truth.

Watch the commercial below.

Noted media-basher Sarah Palin starring on her own reality show? You betcha. The Discovery Channel has all but signed the former Vice Presidential candidate up for the reality show that she’s been shopping around lately, and is expected to make an official announcement shortly.

Sarah Palin’s Alaska, which will be produced by Survivor honcho Mark Burnett, will focus on the one-time Alaskan governor as she introduces the world at large to her wondrous, wintry wonderland, with a focus on the characters, attractions and traditions of the 49th state. Does this mean that we’ll finally get to see her field-dress a moose on TV? And hunt wolves from a helicopter? Let’s all keep our fingers crossed…

The show will preportedly fetch $1 million per episode for the self-proclaimed hockey mom. Which hopefully means that she’ll be able to afford proper note cards in the future.

Will you tune in, if just out of morbid curiosity? Let us know in the comments section.

Sarah Palin, everybody. Just wandering around in black satin and purple knee-high boots — you know, usual respectable politician stuff. Why wouldn’t the would-be vice president of the United States have dressed herself up like she’s heading out for a night of Harry Potter role-playing dinner theater?

Gossip Girl‘s Chace Crawford is going to Washington, and the results could make his TV show seem tame in comparison.

Us Magazine reports that Crawford will be attending the White House Correspondents Dinner in D.C. on Saturday, as a guest of the Fox News Channel.

Odd as that is in itself, the most interesting aspect is that Crawford will be joined by fellow Fox News guest and former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Crawford devotees will remember that Palin, 44, has long served as a lust object for the 23-year-old, Texas born heartthrob. Back during the 2008 Presidential campaign, he proudly told reporters, “I’m not gonna lie. Sarah Palin is quite attractive.”

And now he’ll be spending Saturday night with her, at a glamorous event in the nation’s capitol. If that’s not a recipe for scandal, what is?

Luckily, Crawford will also be joined by his castmates Ed Westwick and Jessica Szohr. Hopefully they’ll be able to help Chace keep his hormones in check. That is, if they don’t spend the whole night making out themselves.

Have your say in the comments section: Do you think Chace Crawford and Sarah Palin would make a good couple?

According to the National Enquirer, Levi Johnston is about to throw the book at the Palin family.

Johnston made headlines last year when it came to light that he had impregnated Bristol Palin, daughter of then-Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Though the two had planned to wed, Johnston and Palin broke up in March, some three months after their son, Tripp, was born.

And now, reportedly desperate to fund a child-custody battle, Johnston is apparently shopping a book spilling all the sordid details about his would-be in-laws.

“Levi was right there in the middle,” says a source. “He knows what really happened inside the Palin family.” (During last year’s presidential campaign, Sarah Palin was accused of several abuses of power in her position as the governor of Alaska.)

Johnston claims he has been banned from attending family outings with his son, and, according to a friend, he plan to write the book both to provide financial security for Tripp and to clear the air.

“If Levi could get a million bucks, it would be worth telling all he really knows,” the source adds.

And now, the real million-dollar question: Will you buy this book if it gets published? Let us know in the comments section!

Bristol Palin, daughter of Alaskan governor and failed vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, is opening up about her breakup this week with Levi Johnston, her former fiancé and father to their son, Tripp Easton.

“It is true that Levi and I are no longer together,” she said in a statement to Us. “However, I am absolutely committed to being the best mom to Tripp Easton.”

The unwed Bristol’s pregnancy at age 17 threatened to derail the McCain/Palin ticket when it was announced last September. However, voter concerns seemed to be assuaged when the public was assured that Bristol would be marrying her young babydaddy. Tripp Easton was born last December.

Johnston, 19, also remarked this week that the couple had ended their engagement “a while ago.”

Bristol also took time out to blast earlier reports about her clan and its seemingly endless drama. “As for the tabloid article, there are many inaccuracies contained within it,” Bristol said. “Unfortunately, my family has seen many things in these tabloids as many try to ‘cash in’ on the Palin name. Sometimes that greed clouds good judgment and the truth.”

Hmm; blaming the media must be a hereditary trait in the Palin family.

Reports state that Britney Spears is dating an Indian dance instructor named Sandip Soparrkar, who allegedly assisted in choreographing her “Womanizer” video. The Mirror states that Spears has been seeing Soparrkar for three weeks, and even recently spent three days in India with him. “For Christmas, Sandip – or Sandy as Britney calls him – presented her with a traditional Indian sari. She wore it during a candlelit dinner. The pair were whispering and giggling all night. Sandy ordered local delicacies including chicken tikka and a cottage cheese curry. Britney was nicking the dough balls from his plate. It was really cute,” a source says.

Former Republican Party Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is a grandmother. The Telegraph reports that Palin’s daughter Bristol gave birth to her son, Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston, with boyfriend Levi Johnston on Sunday. The baby was 7 lbs., 7 ounces.

Rehab center Promises in Malibu, California is denying a Star report that they recently allowed actress Tara Reid a free stay complete with no bag check-in for publicity to revive their ailing business. TMZ reports that Promises released a statement that said “the suggestion that Promises would search Hollywood for a celebrity who needs rehab in an effort to garner publicity is libelous, offensive and without merit.” Star has recently taken the story off their website, and had no comment.

Woody Harrelson married his longtime girlfriend Laura Louie on Sunday, reports People. The couple “were officially married yesterday on the island of Maui,” Harrelson’s rep says. Harrelson and Louie have three daughters together.

Yes Man actress Zooey Deschanel is engaged to Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard, Us reports. Deschanel is “so thrilled,” a source says. “Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited.”

Bristol and Johnston were thrust into the national spotlight in September. Shortly after Sarah Palin was announced as John McCain‘s Vice Presidential running mate, news broke that Bristol, then 17, was five months pregnant with Johnston’s child. The two announced their plans to marry soon after. No ceremony has so far occurred. Their child, meanwhile, is due tomorrow.

Alaska State Troopers arrested the elder Johnston, 42, and charged her with second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance and fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances. She was subsequently released on a $5,000 bond.

Camp Palin is mum on the matter. Palin’s spokesman, Bill McAllister, issued a statement reading, “This is not a state government matter. Therefore the governor’s communications staff will not be providing comment or scheduling interview opportunities.”

Apparently Tina Fey isn’t losing any sleep because of guilt over her portrayal of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live earlier this season, reports Page Six.

Fey, 37, took on the role of the defeated republican vice presidential candidate several times in skits on SNL, giving the series a ratings boost.

“I never did feel that we were mean to her,” Fey tells Barbara Walters in a special The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2008, airing Thursday on ABC.

“We stuck to a lot of things that she herself had said, and I think there is a very strange double standard because it’s a woman portraying another woman…the jokes we used to do about George W. Bush were that he was an idiot. The jokes were aggressive. No one would ever stop and say, ‘Oh, that seems kind of mean.’ “

Things may not have worked out so well for Sarah Palin in the election, but John McCain‘s former running mate is already experiencing sunny days again.

The Alaska governor—who caught some heat for her expensive campaign wardrobe—hit the pool in Miami in considerably less ostentatious clothes yesterday, donning a pair of skimpy shorts while basking in the tropical climate of Florida.

The 44-year-old former beauty queen was in town for a gathering of the Republican Governors Association yesterday, where GOP state leaders discussed the challenges facing their party and the country in the coming years.

The eagle-eyed lensmen of Bauer-Griffin captured the former candidate as she rebooted poolside.

The conference was also attended by Texas governor Rick Perry and Missouri gov Matt Blunt. And no, pictures of Perry and Blunt in thongs will not be forthcoming. You’re welcome.

Another Dancing with the Stars cast member has been injured. TMZ reports professional dancer Kym Johnson, who is NFL player Warren Sapp‘s partner, has received a shoulder injury that will require surgery. Johnson reportedly still performed last night.

TMZ has footage of The Wrestler star Mickey Rourke using a gay slur while talking to paparazzi outside of Hyde in Los Angeles on Sunday night. When photographers asked if he was dating co-star Evan Rachel Wood, Rourke (accompanied by an unidentified blonde) responded with “Do I look like I’m dating Evan Rachel Wood this evening, guys? C’mon, get a grip. She’s a good friend, that’s about it.” Rourke than threatened “And tell that [gay slur] who said all that [expletive] in the paper, I’d like to break his [expletive] legs.”

The Associated Press reports that Alaskan governor and former Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin spent Saturday sorting through her campaign trail clothing to determine which ones were purchased by the Republican National Committee. The clothes in question will reportedly go to back charity, be returned to stores such as Neiman-Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, or be paid for by Palin, according to sources. “She was just frantically … trying to sort stuff out,” Palin’s father Chuck Heath said. “That’s the problem, you know, the kids lose underwear, and everything has to be accounted for. Nothing goes right back to normal.” Palin, her presidential running mate John McCain and the RNC faced criticism when it was reported that Palin’s clothing budget had exceeded $150,000. “Those are the RNC’s clothes. They’re not my clothes. I never forced anybody to buy anything,” Palin said Friday.
